Mehr Uncommon Ground with Justin Brierley

Uncommon Ground is the show where conversations really matter. Hosted by Justin Brierley, a veteran of debate and discussion moderation with 20 years experience, each episode brings together two big thinkers with profoundly different views on science, faith, atheism, philosophy, Christianity, culture, and God. All in the beautiful setting of historic Yarnton Manor, Oxford. Instead of adding to the noise of the culture wars, Uncommon Ground creates space to disagree well—aiming to establish curiosity, clarity, and genuine understanding across the polarities that can divide us. Featuring leading voices from atheism, psychology, science, literature, theology, and more, the show dives into life’s biggest questions. Subscribe now to hear conversations that move beyond the echo chambers and into the deeper questions we all share—Uncommon Ground: conversations that matter.

#8. Lois McLatchie Miller & Ann Furedi: Is abortion immoral? Pro-life vs pro-choice.

Over 250,000 pregnancies are terminated in the UK every year. Is access to abortion a woman's right or the taking of an innocent life? Pro-life campaigner Lois McLatchie Miller engages Ann Furedi, the former head of BPAS - the UK’s leading abortion provider. They join Justin Brierley to discuss when life begins, bodily rights and baby rights, and why despite their deep disagreements, they have become friends. * Find out more: https://justinbrierley.com/uncommon-ground-podcast/ [https://think.faith/media/shows/] * Get early access and more when you become a supporter: https://justinbrierley.com/support-me/ [https://think.faith/support/] * Keep up to date, and receive free chapters from my books, by subscribing to the newsletter: https://justinbrierley.com/get-justins-newsletter/ [https://think.faith/media/newsletter/] * What did you think?

#7. Stephen Meyer & Phil Halper: The Big Bang and Fine Tuning. Does the science of the Universe point to God?

Did the Universe have a 'beginning'? Is the Cosmos 'finely-tuned' for life? And do these phenomena point to God?

#6. Elizabeth Oldfield & James Marriott: Is there meaning to life? And is our secular culture rediscovering it?

Elizabeth Oldfield, host of the Sacred Podcast, and James Marriott, literary critic and Times columnist, join Justin on Uncommon Ground to discuss whether we can find meaning in life without God. Elizabeth tells of her own search for meaning in Christian faith, while James explains why, as an atheist nihilist, he still loves art and literature. They discuss the search for purpose, and signs of a new interest in faith among young people.

#5. Paul Davies & Emily Qureshi-Hurst: Is there purpose in the Universe? Exploring the weirdness of the cosmic and quantum realm.

Is there a purpose to the largest thing of all - The Universe? And does the weird world of the smallest things - Quantum Physics - tell us anything about it? Atheist theologian Emily Qureshi-Hurst believes the evidence points to a purely physical reality. However, astrophysicist Paul Davies says there's a deeper meaning to the 'directionality' of our cosmos. In this mind-expanding conversation, they join Justin to explain the science they agree on... and work out where they differ. * Find out more: https://justinbrierley.com/uncommon-ground-podcast/ [https://think.faith/media/shows/] * Get early access and more when you become a supporter: https://justinbrierley.com/support-me/ [https://think.faith/support/] * Keep up to date, and receive free chapters from my books, by subscribing to the newsletter: https://justinbrierley.com/get-justins-newsletter/ [https://think.faith/media/newsletter/] * What did you think?

#4. Iain McGilchrist & Anil Seth: Minds, brains, consciousness and the God question.

Renowned philosopher Iain McGilchrist and eminent neuroscientist Anil Seth sit down with Justin Brierley to discuss whether consciousness is a product of brain chemistry or points to God. They discuss left and right brain hemispheres, panpsychism, theories of consciousness and how meditation and prayer affect our psychology.
